going out / hanging out

When you have family and kids,of course you can't have the same social life you had before. But I was talking more about young people (specially about the ones younger than 30).Only few of them come out their house,excepting going to work.Even children...they stay at the computer or play at home instead of going out and playing with other children.That's not okay. I think that the job(or school in other cases) doesn't have to take all of your time.You have to find some time for yourself.

well having two teens of my own who have several friends and cousins ranging in ages from 11 to 24 I have to say that very few of them sit about at home doing nothing....I mean we live in the country and still my kids are very social etc..but its something that I encourage to an extent... One thing to remember too since you are takling about the younger generation is th fact that (especially with teens today)..the parents/caregivers these days tend to be too busy to be a part of their kids lives etc...College students have their plate full with studies and just surviving in the world today and so on ya know...LOL its definately not like it was when I was a teen thats for sure! Or for that matter when I was in my 20s...I was a single mom raising two little ones, taking care of the house/bills/cooking cleaning etc etc, I was goin to school AND working full time and I still made sure I had a good time..
